"Fate? I Love You."

A list of just some of the Acts that the Government refused to rule out of being subject to the new Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill:

Act of Settlement 1700 Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 Bail Act 1976 Bill of Rights 1688 Church of England Assembly (Powers) Act 1919 Church of Scotland Act 1921 Civil Contingencies Act 2004 Claim of Right 1689 Constitutional Reform Act 2005 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 European Communities Act 1972 Freedom of Information Act 2000 Government of Ireland Act 1920 Government of Wales Act 2006 Government of Wales Act 1998 Habeas Corpus Acts 1679 to 1862 House of Lords Act 1999 Human Rights Act 1998 Identity Cards Act 2006 Immigration Act 1971 Local Government Act 1972 Magna Carta 1215 Ministerial and Other Salaries Act 1975 Ministers of the Crown Act 1975 Northern Ireland Act 1947 Northern Ireland Act 1998 Official Secrets Acts 1911 to 1989 Parliament Acts 1911 and 1949 Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 Protestant Religion and Presbyterian Church Act 1706 Public Order Acts 1936 to 1986 Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 Representation of the People Acts 1981 to 2002 Scotland Act 1998 Security Service Act 1989 Statute of Westminster 1931 Succession to the Crown Act 1707 Terrorism Act 2000 Terrorism Act 2006 Union with England Act 1707 Union with Scotland Act 1706 Welsh Church Disestablishment Act 1914.

On the brightside, it would mean that we could wipe out the independence of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Mind you, it would also allow a Prime Minister to dissolve Parliament, suspend the Magna Carta and declare himself King, though. Now that's a legacy...
